2012 Aston Martin Virage
The New Aston Martin Virage offers buyer greater choice of individual sports car characters, by combining outright sports car performance with luxury, comfort and refinement. Alongside the Volante, the new Virage completes the Aston Martin sporting GT line-up sitting between DBS and DB9. In coupe form, Virage is available as a 2+2 or a 2+0 as an option.
The new Virage employs hand-built 6.0 liter V12engine which produces 490 bhp (365 kW/497 PS) and 570 nM (420 lb. Ft) of torque and is identified from other V12s in the family with a black plenum. The V12 engine has been designed to deliver over 85% of Virage’s peak torque at only 1,500 rpm providing for instant and crucially, real-world useable traction.
The new Virage features a new Adaptive Damping System (ADS) which has been tuned to suit the particular character of Aston Martin’s latest sporting GT. Virage is delivered to customers with Carbon Ceramic Matrix (CCM) brakes as standard. The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system has been specifically tuned.
